For New and Prospective Patients

Who are the patients at The Dispensary?

At The Dispensary, our patients are the foundation of our service and the community. They are our neighbors, our friends, and those in need of assistance in some cases to cope with the debilitating conditions they endure and face daily. Compassion, understanding, and their comfort are our primary goals. At The Dispensary, we strive to assist however we may beyond the simple purchase of their required medication, and to further the harmonious balance between the communities and the patients we assist.

For Existing Patients

The Dispensary prides itself on patient satisfaction and making your experiences with medical cannabis and your everyday ailments the best they can possibly be. We understand the need for private conversations and consultations to discuss medical cannabis, specific ailments, treatment options, proper usage, and any other topics required by the patient. With that, we’ve set up an option for patients and caregivers to schedule a private patient consultation.

All patient consultations will be led by an employee-patient who can directly speak to the benefits of specific medical products and how they may work for you. Consultations will take place in a private room directly adjacent to the sales floor with a large conference table and multimedia capabilities. To schedule a private consultation, please visit our patient consultation page for more information and fill in the requested information to get your appointment scheduled today. Walk in consultations are accepted as available, but to best serve you, advanced scheduling is recommended.

The Dispensary Fulton now offers online ordering for patients that know what they want and are in a hurry.

With the Fast Lane, skip the queue by allowing us to pre-pack your order. By preparing your medicine in advance, we can continue to offer the high quality, personalized experience you’re used to for new and inquiring patients, as well as provide a speedy service to the well seasoned and informed patient at an extra register reserved just for Online Orders. For those that know what they want, and know they want to be in and out, we’re here to help make your life easier while still giving all patients the time and attention that they deserve to better their health and make well informed decisions about their treatment options.
